"There's No Need Of Wings To Fly"

Chapter 26 ~ Pain.

"Why?" I screamed crying to the guy I loved "Why did you do that?"

"Grace, don't you see? I have power now." he smiled.

"Oh, fuck yourself. Do you really think that this is right? Do you really think that with the evil you can solve problems? How do you have the courage to betray the people you love?" I screamed grabbing the bars of the jail to be closer to him.

A jolt, a little spark in his eyes, then nothing, darkness.

"For me, this is happiness." he answered without emotions.

"No, Daniel! It isn't at all! Do you even see yourself? Do you see the way you are? It seems that they had ripped your heart and feelings out! This is not you, this is not my boyfriend!"

I stared at his eyes, but nothing.

My words seemed to bounce off him and come back on me.
And this hurt, it was painful.

"You're wrong." he said, and then turned around and went away.

I remained there, with my eyes fixed on the boy who was walking away, my hands gripped on the iron and the tears that were rolling down.

That wasn't him.

"Stop, p-please.." I suggested.

"Doing what?" answered that ugly witch in front of me.

"To use magic as outburst, you're just jealous, you don't want me dead otherwise you would have already killed me!" I bit the bullet.

I didn't know how far I wanted to go.

"Oh, my Dave.. do you think I hadn't planned it all?

She loves you and you love her.. and there's no better victory to see two people who are intended to be together, divide forever.." she laughed tastefully.

"She.. who?" I asked with my heart in my mouth.

"You truly know who I'm talking about, you're going to die in front of her eyes and the last thing you'll remember about your life will be her heartbroken look..oh, how sad.. you mere mortals are so pathetic." she said with ease, observing her nails.

I would have wanted to tear them all off her fingers.

"You would never have the courage to do something like that!" I screamed with all the anger and pain that was inside me.

"Yes, instead. The best part is yet to come." she said getting up and opening the laboratory's door.

"My slave, I was waiting for you." she smiled pleased to a figure who was standing next to the door.

I was able to see better, only when he entered the room.

A guy, rather tall, aqua green eyes and dark hair.

"At your service, madam." he bowed.

Dear Diary,

It's enough, I really can't take this anymore.

By constantly staying with these two, I'll become depressed too, you'll see!

I'm not stopping for a moment to search for a solution, but I'm not able to reach results.

Tomorrow is going to be the seventh day.

Thinking about it, Dave had woken me up in the morning, so we have two nights to free him.. if we won't do that by 7 am, it's going to be the end.

I don't even dare to think about it.

I think it's dinner time more or less, we're without food since yesterday evening and, just between me and you, I'm not even hungry.

Now maybe it's better if I rest a little bit, I'll write to you soon.
                                              your Clare

I closed my notebook and put it with my pencils inside my bag.

Before putting up myself, I looked around. Grace was in a corner while crying, and Violet was with her.

Some time more and she could have flooded the cell.

"Goodnight." I said without even looking at them. This story was seriously annoying me.

"Clare.." stepped in Grace.

"What do you want?" I answered irritated.

"Why this tone?" asked Violet.

In that moment everything I had inside me seemed to blow up in an instant.

"ARE YOU REALLY ASKING ME THAT?

You don't know what it means to be closed in a cell with two depressed people for three days in a row!"

Violet got up angrily.

"Do you know how does it feel to loose the last fragment of your family? Do you know what it means to be left completely alone?

DO YOU KNOW?" she screamed against me.

Grace observed the whole scene without moving a single muscle.

"NO! I DON'T KNOW! But if you would only think about it, is this what your brother would like to happen? Would he like to see you closed the whole day in a corner of a jail crying? NO! He knows that you have balls so show them and make him proud of you!"

I saw that she remained with her mouth opened.

"And you, dear Grace.. if I were you, I would have already gone out of here just to punch that asshole!"

She had Violet's same reaction and then burst out laughing.

"You know what? YOU'RE RIGHT!" she answered getting up.

Meanwhile the other one was still with her mouth opened and turned to her.

"Are you serious?" she asked surprised.

"Yes, I wanna piece out that guy!" she smiled a little bit sadly, but determinated.

"And I'll help you!" suddenly stepped in Violet.

"AAH! FINALLY! Why do I have to scream to make you all reason?" I smiled.

"Anyway I'll think about saving Dave!" I convinced myself.

"Ah ah! I had noticed that you like him!" screamed Grace.

"Yes! I agree!" added the other one.

"That's not true!" I answered back, without being able to hold back a smile.

"Yeah, sure. Just rest." she said smiling.

"Of course...goodnight girls."

"Night!" they answered in a chorus.
